The "After Number the Stars Holocaust Research" Lesson Plan
After Number the Stars Holocaust Research
Overview
This is an activity that can be done after the reading of Number the Stars. It's a lesson plan that will allow them to research what actually happened during the Holocaust to the Jews that were caught, luckily, unlike Annemarie's friend.
I have also included the website to the LiveBinders binder that I made to go alongside with the lesson plan. It has websites about the Holocaust if you want to have the students all visiting the same sites. There are also a varying amount of questions that go along with each website in the binder.
Preparation
- Review the lesson plan and attached sheets.
- Decide whether you want to use pre-decided on websites or find their own websites of research.
- Prepare the students to be ready for the information they will find in their research. The Holocaust was a difficult time and the students should have a warning as to what they are researching and what they will find.
- If you plan to use the Livebinders website on a tablet of any kind, I suggest testing it to see if it works. I have only personally tested Livebinders on a computer and am unsure how well it will work on tablets of any kind.
